Mitchell > Judd, for sustained greatness over a longer period.
1st ever dual west coast brownlow medalist
i agree. I think Judd at his peak though was a superior player
there isn't much between the 3 of them for me.
The modern Voss-Hird-Buckley for me.

Fair call. Both amazing players. It's a shame judds body got wrecked but he did play a much more inside game than Mitchell who is a great behind the play kinda player

How is that in any way appealing to a football fan?
Sorry...who's the third? Mitchell, Judd, and Ablett?1st ever dual west coast brownlow medalist

I'd have Goodes ahead of Judd and Mitchell still.

Better for who?
Certainly not better for both Mitchell and West Coast.
Maybe better to help you with your bizzare adolescent tanty you are having over it

He looks like a fake. How can you argue with that logic?

Have this same conversation with a mate regarding Judd/Ablett/Mitchell often.
I consider Mitchell the best. I think Judd's heights were unreal, though too short lived. Ablett and Judd at their peak were similar levels (I reckon Ablett was better slightly), though Ablett maintained that level for a good 7 years. Judd probably did for 3-4. Judd had such a loveable style, powering his way through packs and breaking the lines. Ablett was capable of this too, but also accumulated a lot more than Judd. Even if he was fed, he still always put the ball in a better position than when he received it. He was a much better disposal than Juddy, and better up forward too.
The gap between Judd and Mitchell at their peaks (which I still think Mitchell is currently in) is a bit bigger for mine - Judd's peak was comfortably better. Though Mitchell has been so ******* dominant for a good 12 years, and barely missed a game through injury. He's also won 4 flags, and even though he's never been captain, I'd say he is a better leader than Judd and Ablett. Judd and Ablett just aren't natural leaders, it sticks out like dog's balls. Midfielders walk taller around him, they definitely don't with Ablett, they did with Judd - though I just don't see him coaching and seeing the game as well as Mitchell.
It's probably clear that I'm a bit of a Sam Mitchell fanboy, but like to look at everything without bias. The longevity of his career and the sheer number of games in which he's been at the peak of his powers is just unreal. Looks like he won't slow down any time soon either.
Mitchell > Ablett > Judd imo

Judd's "thing" was break away from a pack after a contested possession was earned, Mitchell's "thing" is making the pack melt around him after gaining a contested possession.
People might start to get a new appreciation for him now that he's no longer in a side that commentators fap over. His "good driver in heavy traffic" ability is probably second to none.
P.s. Mitchell is the 2008 Premiership captain.

See, I've been saying Mitchell was better for years and shot down for it.
So I cede the point that judd was better.

No chance.
Goodes was a rung below ablett and Mitchell. Probably behind a few others as well

No chance? Goodes is extremely underrated on BF. Only behind Ablett IMO.
